Best Thread Creator
STM (see comments in MVP)

Best Blogger
Mac Sirloin (I'm sure he posted a blog quite recently). There are certain people who's blogs I always look forwards to reading, but Kastirloin has a particularly idiosyncratic way with words which is just compelling.

Greatest Debater
OANST? Can't think of any recent meaningful debates. Thought he was articulate in the Justin Bieber Body Double thread, but maybe that's just because I agreed with him...

Fan Corner Suite
Best Oddworld Artist
Varrok

Best Modder/Hacker
Paul? Haven't been keeping up to date, so he's the only name that comes to mind to be honest.

Most Insular Member
Splat's so insular he's been absorbed by Fan Corner never to be seen again, outside OR in...



Funniest Poster
MA never fails to make me crack a smile.

Most Unintentionally Funny Poster
Vlam, you're just such an angry little man!

Most Meaningful Poster
MA, maybe, because I know he's been through more than his fair share of shit (not just cow shit), and I feel like anyone who goes through shit and has a story to tell and wisdom to bestow deserves to be revered to some degree. Although I can think of a few people, though, depends on your definition of "meaningful".

Most Underrated Poster
Havoc. He posts regularly (I think), thereby helping keep the place alive, and I don't remember him saying anything that's irked me for quite a long time

Best Advice Giver
OANST maybe? He's seen hard times, he's got responsibilities (wife, children, etc), I can't specifically think of any recent advice, but I'd happily listen to his perspective on quite a few matters.

Best Newcomer
Did FA join in 2015, or earlier? I really can't think of anyone else, to be honest (not to devalue your nomination!)

Most Welcome Return
Hobo

Best Veteran
Nate, for his patience and continued presence.

Dearly Missed Member
DI

Most Liked
Phylum. I could put a dozen names here, to be honest, some of which I've nominated for other categories, but Phylum's a good, open lad, and it seems like there's no-one who doesn't have time for him.

Most Eccentric
Shade, or whatever the speedrunner's name is

Most Annoying
Vlam

Most Accomplished Troll
OANST

Best Couple
MA and MM (their recent-ish meeting comes to mind, sounded likea good evening)

Most Dedicated Member
Nate.

Member in Dire Need of a Life
Vlam. Calm down a bit, hopefully you'll mellow out a bit after a couple more years and you'll realise there are bigger concerns than driving away JAW people

Nep. You seem to be growing up a bit, and it seems like perhaps you're becoming a bit less insular and slightly more outgoing. Still seem a bit aggressive and disdainful, though, there's nothing wrong with being opinionated, but maybe you could be a bit more flexible and willing to listen to others. But I don't know, maybe that's unfair, I don't really know how you are.

Most Stoic
Vlam has taken some stick (which he has thoroughly brought upon himself), but even though he isn't proving too popular, he sticks around and seems almost indifferent to the dismay he causes everyone (even though sometimese he does seem to get a little defensive and hot under the collar)

Most Valuable Poster (MVP)
STM, for his efforts to try and resuscitate the forums. To be fair, quite a few people made quite a few contributions with regards to that, but STM started the thread that sparked that whole discussion. And we seem to be a bit more active recently, too, even if we aren't getting new members.
